    That's why it's so fun to watch your reactions. You two seem so close and very much on the same wavelength. For someone who WAS raised on this kind of music, maybe you can see why we are kind of stuck on 60s and 70s music. There was so much love, hope and peace between people. We still try to maintain those feelings today. It's harder now, but worth it.

    You guys are so sweet, it is always so wonderful to see a married couple that is so deeply in love. My husband and I will soon be 34 years. It brought tears to my eyes Mel when you said "Can you imagine being raised on this music? Life would be so different." I was, raised on this music and I can tell you for sure, absolutely, positively, that is did give me a different viewpoint of the world, and of love. I grew up listening to this music and it made me believe that as a woman I was deserving of respect and that masculine men were kind and feeling Music was this bright place for me, no matter what was going on in the world or in my life, the music was there in the background with a positive vibe making me feel hopeful . That is why it is such a wonderful thing to expose people to this music and show our children how to enjoy it and that good beautiful things can be fun. Another thing we had that children don't have anymore is music appreciation classes in school. I grew up being taught how to listen and pick out the sound of different instruments. I learned how to play the cello in the school orchestra, and how to read basic music notes. I learned how to sing harmony and perform with the school glee club. It didn't stop there though. The lyrics of songs inspired my interest in writing poetry, and that led to an appreciation for exploring all kinds of art. This has brought me much enjoyment over the years.. The beauty of music and art keeps my life balanced. You guys are really giving a service to people by just showing how to sit down and be still and listen to music with enjoyment and feeling. I think that is one reason I love listening to your channel so much. You two are so much fun. :)

American Bandstand was responsible for groups getting exposure. It was an exciting time. I have a request that is out of the ordinary. Gomer Pyle was a tv show that was in the 60s. Jim Nabors plays Gomer. There is one video where he sings The Impossible Dream and is unbelievable. His singing voice is nothing like his Gomer voice

    Quintessential love song! All the romance, the soaring vocals, the timeless sentiment. I love The Hollies & The Guess Who for similar reasons: each of their popular songs has a unique sound given unto itself. Some bands can do a signature sound. Both of these bands can do signature quality for each individual song.
